Iglesia de la Trinidad

This guide to Iglesia de la Trinidad in Cartagena traces how a captain's burial deal built a parish church for the marginalized fishing quarter of Getsemani around 1600, and how its plain facade came to rival the cathedral itself in age. It also follows a blacksmith named Pedro Romero, who rallied Getsemani's lancers against Spanish rule in the square outside in 1811. Stand at the church steps at dusk, when the same ground turns into a different kind of gathering entirely.
